Lord Curzon's Farewell to India is a historical book written by George Nathaniel Curzon, the Viceroy of India from 1899 to 1905. The book was published in 1907 and is a reflection of Curzon's experiences and observations during his tenure as the Viceroy of India. The book is divided into two parts. The first part is a collection of speeches and addresses that Curzon gave during his farewell tour of India. In these speeches, he talks about his achievements as the Viceroy and his vision for India's future. He also reflects on the challenges that India faced during his tenure, such as the plague epidemic and the partition of Bengal. The second part of the book is a collection of essays that Curzon wrote after his return to England. These essays cover a range of topics related to India, including its history, culture, and politics. Curzon also reflects on his personal experiences in India and the impact that his time there had on him. Overall, Lord Curzon's Farewell to India is an important historical document that provides insight into the British Raj and the attitudes of British officials towards India during the colonial period. It is also a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of India.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
